Two of Kirby Smart's Georgia staff members have earned hefty pay raises
Heading into the 2017 college football season, expectations are high for the Georgia Bulldogs.
As fans in Athens prepare for what they feel should be a fantastic season, the pressure on second-year coach Kirby Smart and his staff is building.
However, with the added pressure, two Georgia staff members will be receiving raises, which is always welcome ahead of a stressful season.
Running backs coach Dell McGee, who will be coaching returning stars Nick Chubb and Sony Michel (in addition to a crop of talented young runners waiting in the wings), will see his salary jump from $275,000 to $350,000, according to DawgNation.com.
Also listed in the report was strength and conditioning coordinator Scott Sinclair, who will see his pay rise by $80,000 — from $220,000 to $300,000 — in 2017.
Both coaches are entering their second years with the Georgia program. Suffice it to say that Smart seems to like what he’s seen from his assistants so far.
